 * 3) Mix the bicarbonate of soda with the water, and add to the butter and golden syrup.
 * 4) Pour the liquids into the dry ingredients and mix well.
 * 5) Spoon dollops of mixture about the size of a walnut shell onto a greased baking sheet, leaving as much space again between dollops to allow for spreading.

 * 7) Cool on a wire rack and seal in airtight containers.

Notes, tips, and variations

 * The American tablespoon is a little smaller than the British/Australian tablespoon, so be generous with your golden syrup and water.
